OMG- and all that Jazz

OMG, GEE's, CRIKEY, HOLEY CAMOLY..LOL, Ok Muka I am trying to keep it PG..LOL, But I am DUMBSTRUCK and HUMBLED!! I honestly am- when the messages started coming in I got a LUMP so big it was scary!! Hubby wanted to know what was wrong and I couldn't speak! I THANK YOU ALL from the bottom of my heart and of course everywhere else too!! I will pass on ALL these comments to my WONDERFUL fellow designers and sisters at DSO!!! And you know all I kept thinking was "Jazz Jazz Jazz- what have you made me do"- maybe I should have taken the WHACK from that wet noodle instead!- LOL LOL- But I tell you people I thank her for standing up for all of US- THANK YOU JAZZ - Love you girl!!

And well don't you just feel a song coming on when you read that- I did I tell you- "and all that Jazz"...hahahaha, yeah that good old "Musical" that UM - heres a big *blush blush* (yup I do that now and again!!hahahaha) I did when I was in Matric( or Grade 12) and we had a talent show(made my "troupe" the opening act)- hahahaha- stop laughing!! We did the whole cabaret in leotard, fishnet tights, tails, top hat and HIGH HEELS!!- For goodness sakes- who in their right mind does a cabaret in stiletto's!!! My poor headmaster at the time was sitting in the front row and he NEVER looked up once- ROTFLMAO- honest, he just couldn't believe we would "parade in such a little clothing"- DUH- it was the early 80's for goodness sake-LOL LOL!! It's a miracle I never landing in his lap I was giggling so much because I never could balance so well on those "pointy torture devices" called shoes! hahahahaha.

But before I get to the freebie today- I have a new set of SBM easy click templates in store.

Easy Lo's in a couple of minutes.. you can get them HERE. And don't forget to pop in and say Hi in the forum- you get a little kit just for saying HELLO- and all the fun challenges have posting gifts too- finish all of them in the month and you will get a HUGE kit just for doing so- but if you don't have time to do them all you will STILL receive parts of the kit - finish 3 and you get a portion of the Kit etc!!!

AWESOME stuff I tell you-LOL.. and all that Jazz- hahahaha LOL, yeah I've been singing that ALL DAY- so here is a LO I did with your freebie for today- and my stitches from yesterday(Gee's they work OK-LOL LOL LOL)

Well I didn't have time to scan the one with me in my "stiletto's and tights" lol- this is my "girlfriends" and I at a "Cocktail bar"- (Um not sooo long ago-LOL) and ready to do "all that jazz"-LOL LOL, You get 3 papers ( been playing with new texture overlays I made-tee hee) and a Ribbon cluster and of course the famous Top hat ( as seen on my dear friends head! hahahaha). I got a lot of "questions" about where I prefer comments- here or on 4 shared- I honestly DON"T mind!!! Which ever is easier for you, and I think we broke a record in the "ratio's average" yesterday- LOL LOL LOL, SO THANK YOU AGAIN TO ALL!!! I love you guys!!!!! OOPS- see nearly forgot the link again- eeeek got to get a new brain too! LOL http://www.4shared.com/file/18334574/ae0ec390/AllthatJazz.html So honestly I am sending ALL of you that left messages, comments, e-mails, and thank you's for myself and my fellow designers a HUGE HUG AND LOVES- and um a bit of ALL THAT JAZZ- hee hee. I hope you all have a super day- Loves Kim

Spanielmom here! Thanks for the musical stuff. I have two kids that play piano, saxophone, one plays bassoon, the other plays clarinet & oboe, both are in the jazz band. This will be great for scrapping their band pictures. I'd love to see you elaborate on this with more papers and elements. These are great! Thank YOU!

GM Kim,I see that you hunted me down, LOL. Dang, I'll have to find a better hiding place next time! ;)(giggles) Thanks for coming by and saying hi to me! I appreciate you taking the time to do so. I know you are really busy. And thanks for the comment about my new kit coming soon. I hope to finish it up by this weekend, but you know how that it. And with my DD's 1st b-day party on Sat, not sure I'll make it! LOL. I hope that you have a great day filled with lots of great comments and hugs.Hugs,Angel

This kit looks lovely!!! Thank you!!! Congrats to your friend for insisting you give us all a good kick if we don't show some appreciation. : D She's absolutely right! I don't make it by every day so sometimes I'm picking up more than one goodie at a time - I always say thank you but sometimes it's for multiple items ... usually try to mention them all in one post. Others like me may account for some of the numerical descrepencies(sp?) but I'm sorry to say some truely do need to step up and do the right thing! Have a wonderful day!

I just read all of the comments on the last post... I just hope that everyone remembers even a week from now.I didn't agree with one... but I won't go into that except to say... we CAN do what we do because we love it... we could only share with our friends BUT because we care to help others we share with them and make new friends... what is wrong with expecting someone to have manners? I know I have taught my girls to say please and thank you... and the one who have children are teaching their children... what is wrong with the on-line world using manners? It REALLY does mean a lot! and it helps motivate to do more... hope that makes sense... at any rate... Thank you for ALL you do!!!! I may not download much anymore, I have bought kits I have never even used, but as I said yesterday, I love reading the blogs.Have a wonderful day!!!!!

Kim... I started reading your post and first I laughed cuz of the PG thing (heck, you don;t even come close to cursing like I do, lol!) then I continued reading and I was all, what the heck?! of course I didn't stop by yesterday to read your post so I scrolled down and read it - and anyways, big belated hugs on the whole download/don't comment thing - sure can get a girl down! really there is something wrong with this whole freebie system - sometimes I think that some very bored souls are just dling and pirating to get a kick out of it - that they prob don't even own a scrapping program and think it's funny to do what they do. (ok, you got a serious post? here's my serious comment, lol!) seriously though, don't let anyone get to you and just keep on creating - Jazz is right; you are unique and creative and original and generous to share with us, and damn whoever isn't civil enough to leave a thank you! (ooops... there goes my non-PG mouth :)) anyways big hugs again and, of course... thanks for the freebie :)have a great day kim! xoxo

Thanks for this mini kit! I just love the theme! I am new to digiscrap and still learning to manipulate my PSE, so the freebies you girls are offering are a Godsend until I know what the heck I am doing. right now it is taking me just as long to do a digi layout as a paper one. My DH is questioning my "saves me time theory" thus far. I'll just keep going until it's second nature...for now, THANK YOU!

Kim, thanks so much for leaving the terrific message on my blog. I drop by yours at least once a day for a "visit" but don't always leave a message -- but I DO leave a thank-you any time I download something. I totally agree with your comments -- and others -- about the mystery of how people can grab your freebie and not have the common courtesy to say thanks. I LOVE your stuff and can't thank you enough for sharing your light, laughter and talent with us all. See ya later, Melanie

PS I don't know what happened to the forum at Debz either. Hopefully, we'll see something soon. In the meantime, I'm sharing another freebie, finally. It's a simple word art, but one that amuses me. http://mmdcreations.blogspot.com/

OMG what an awesome lil kit!!! I am going to see if i can't get a pic of my lil girl to match it (i know, how sad is that?! I take pics to match elements and papers i want to use?! or make a kit to match one or two photos...sigh i am addicted, yeah)...so beautiful! tfs!

Um, this is a bit off topic, but i couldn't find an email addy for you on your progfile, so this was the next best thing! :D Hun, DSSA is back up and running, I thought i'd let you know. You haven't been around in a while ... come say hi won't you? Awesome positive energy like yours is always so fun to have around, plus you left a wonderful comment on one of my LO's, so i thought i'd best get you back there, 'cause come saturday i'm uploading some more and just now gorgeous Kim isn't there to leave so love, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! huggles hun!!!

Gosh I'm blushing..didnt do a thing but say what was in my heart..you shouldn't have mentioned that talent show picture..you KNOW I will hound you til you show us..so might as well find it..I love stiletto's. I used to wear them everyday to work..had a pair to match every outfit..when I was a little girl my aunt wore a size 5 shoe and she loved them to..so she gave me old ones to play dress up in..I could walk like a pro in them then..but alas..I am old now..all the knowledge I have gained thru the years has filled my head and overflowed to the rest of me and now I resemble a beached whale..whales dont do well in stiletto's.!!! Love the freebie for today and the lO you did is great..your stitchs look awesome..going to have to try that one out soon..ok girl..gotta go..hugs to you...and you know the rest and all that jazz....

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this mini kit!! I'm a huge fan of RED - and we are a musical family! I will have many uses for this. How special for Jazzie to have a kit named after her! (I'm a fellow SBM'er too!) She deserves it, she's wonderful and so are YOU for sharing your FABULOUS creations with us!

Generous scrappers use their time & talent to share with others - lucky scrappers receive these gifts gratefully - and some sad people just whine. I wont call THEM scrappers. Thanks to you for ALL your wonderful work!!!!

Just so you know, right now I'm one of those people who, if not for the designers offering freebies, wouldn't be able to do digital scrapbooking. We're going through a really tough patch right now, and there are days that I can't scrounge up enough for a gallon of milk, let alone buy a scrapbooking kit. So I really do appreciate you and the other designers. And when things get better, I fully intend to return the love with some sales.

Kim - I just wanted to say that when I discovered the freebie world I was affraid someone would find out that I don't belong here and then stop me from getting all these wonderful goodies. I wondered what "club" this was and I knew I was not an invited guest, but I kept downloading and thanking, fearing someone would discover that I was not invited! I did that because I felt that was the least I could do! One day a designer responded to me via email and thanked me for thanking her. I was totally confused. Why shouldn't I thank her and why was she thanking me. It was because hardly anyone ever thanked her! How terrible I thought. So that was my lesson on "you better at least say thank you!" [I still don't understand why this is the way it is]Also, some designers have a google account, and if you are not a member you cannot respond to the posts, so if you want to download you should say thank you at least at 4Share. I hope all designer do read the 4share comments. [Your account is not like what I am talking about here]

Thank you very much for the sweet jazz kit, I am not sure when I will use it, but I do know that at some time in the future I probably will and want to get it while you are still giving it away. Also I know about the freebie thing...it is a pain when you think how so few bother to say thank you...at least you know the ones that do are the ones that appreciate it the most!

Oh my! This is absolutely fantastic, especially the music paper. Kim you are such a brilliant designer, you must just be bursting with all these ideas and we are lucky enough to be the recipients. Absolutely brilliant!

This is a kewl kit! Reminds me of a time when my lil girl age 6, memorized the sheet music to "All That Jazz," and played it so fastyour head would spin! Her teachernever could get her to slow up....that "Three Minute Waltz" was like 30 seconds long! LOLThanks hon for the kit!huggies,Hilly
